The thing about so-called generative artificial intelligence is, the intelligence isn't artificial. It's real. It's OURS. The techbros stole our intelligence (our data, our thoughts, our stories, our art) and used the software to regurgitate it and spackle it together into digital particleboard.

JD Vance claimed on X that “Slava Ukraini” protesters followed him & shouted at his daughter.
Guess he didn’t realize it was caught on camera. No one yelled at his kid, and they didn’t follow them.
Vance & Musk need to quit using children as shields. The public isn’t backing down—we want answers.

WOW
Just watched the clips of the Orange Buffoon embarrassing our nation in front of one of the bravest men alive; President Zelenskyy.
Words don't get it, but surely this is one of this nations most shameful days.
Unbelievable
Please accept our most humble apologies

We stopped in Selma on our way to the Monroeville Literary Festival. We ate a wonderful lunch at the 5 & Dime (go there eat and stay in the gorgeous lofts), summoned courage from the heroes who crossed this bridge, and danced to The Pine Hill Haints in the courtroom from To Kill a Mockingbird.

For the past five years or so I’ve kept this empty silk cocoon on my desk. Now I’ve found one in my yard. And thrilled to watch for the moth emerge.

Wonder if Elon could survive a week on the salary we make. While he burns through $8 million a day, the working class struggles—yet he paints us as the enemy.

He’s calling people who receive federal assistance “parasites” while taking $8 million a day from U.S. taxpayers—plus another $400 million on the way for armored Teslas. What a hypocrite. This administration is full of terrible people.

Top tip. Don’t have insomnia in the middle of a coup.
An executive order has now given DOGE oversight of all government departments.
It’s a complete takeover of the federal government by Musk. A Musk ‘team lead’ will now make all hiring decisions according to a ‘data-driven’ model
